Membership Dues
With the new school year starting, each club needs to pay dues again. With the dues schedule being even earlier than last year, have clubs should start planning their collection schedules now in order for October and November collections to go as smoothly as possible.
What are Membership Dues? To run a big organization like Key Club International, Key Clubbers have to pay dues! Dues are super important and there are many perks to being a dues-paid member as well!! I will be releasing more information about dues shortly but please keep in mind the following deadlines:
November 1 - Early bird dues deadline
December 1 – Regular dues deadline |

Youth Opportunities Fund
Your club can apply and earn a grant through the YOF!! The Youth Opportunities Fund (YOF) is an endowed fund that grants anywhere between $250 to $2,000 to individual Key Clubs to assist with carrying out service projects! I highly encourage your club to apply if you have ideas for a large-scale service project!
HOW TO APPLY:
1. A club should conduct a community needs assessment and use the results to plan its project. Below are resources for conducting needs assessments:
Key Club Community Assessment Tool Intro
Guide to Needs Assessment
Sample Needs Assessment
Budget Template
Sample Budget 2. A club must create an account on Foundant. If a club has received a grant or applied for one in the past, then the club should use its current Foundant account.
3. Use the information gathered from the community needs assessment and details for the project to fill out the application.
First Application Cycle Deadline: October 15th at 11:59 PM EDT
